There is a lot of writing, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. Also, Malk, a game doesn't necessarily /have/ to be unbalanced because you can buy extra turns. I mean, hell, some games don't even /have/ turns :p But srsly, the turns thing comes from the competitive nature of KoL and TH, but I think this game is a bit different. More for the story, ya know? I think that's the same reason Forumwarz lets people buy turns (albeit, they remove them from leaderboard eligibility and what not). I haven't seen any leaderboards on this game, yet, though.

15-20 a day seems low to me. Are you taking data from all players or just regular players? Because I bet a lot of players are just signing up and playing a few turns to get a feel for the game. I know I did. But for actually playing the game I think that would feel like way to few turns per day.
